Join in for another update of Confluence Region.

Today - a rather short update, due to personal health issues. My two months absence is interrupted to bring you this update. After that, it's a matter of time until the next one, hopefully as soon as possible. :???:

I wish I could thank all of you separately... It's heartwarming to see my work bearing fruit, and to recieve your blessings every update!

All 16 of the comments are awesome to see, especially because I get it on my phone, online and instantly.

And to answer a small question by Kinderly - What makes you sure that this CJ is set in america? ;)

Brief Update:

Do you remember J.L. Solomon? As one of the heads of the "Gateway to Hope" movement, he recruits many men and women to join to the effort of colonizing the frontier. By 1882, dozens are due to travel by sea and settle in the Confluence region, thus forcing development.

Cornerstone is the second settlement in the region, besides Homestead. While their north bank neighbours enjoy easy access to crops and fishing boats, locals here rely on constant supply boats, mostly from Homestead itself.

Besides of taming the land, land surveys are starting to initiate... This next picture is shot around 500 meters to the east of Cornerstone, past the small creek, towards the large slough shown in the "Sculpting Nature, Part 5" update. I wish them minimal mosquito bites during their stay there.

Looks like that settlement has expanded.

Let me rephrase the question. Will there be any relations with natives?(if any)
